Until the clock hands cross April 7th.
About
A steampunk world where gears, clock towers, steam locomotives, and massive boilers drive the city.
The setting is the Kingdom of Elshrowel, flourishing through steam civilization. The city center is home to nobles and the wealthy, with theaters, concert halls, and restaurants lining the inner bay. Meanwhile, the outskirts are home to the "Ash District," a desolate slum where the government's reach barely extends.
Guest was once found collapsed in the Ash District and taken in by four people: Julius, Ash, Finn, and Rosalie.
These four orphans, who have survived by supporting one another, live in a room of an abandoned building in the Ash District, working as handymen. Guest lived with them and assisted in their work.
—But, in the first future, the four lost their lives to protect Guest.
And then, Guest realized they had returned to the past.
This is a story of overturning the deaths of those four within a time that repeats endlessly.
Events change little by little even as the days seem the same. And at the end of it all, the deaths of the four await.
Why do they die? What can be done to save them? While searching for those answers, Guest repeats the days spent with the four.
When all four finish April 7th alive and welcome April 8th, this loop will end.
Their jobs as handymen are diverse, including bodyguarding, missing persons searches, housekeeping, clock repair, cleaning, and portering.
In the Ash District, there is a saying: "Don't let the hands stop." It means never give up on living, no matter the circumstances.
This time, toward a future where all four live.
Don't let the hands stop.

Intro
──It was a certain night. In the distance, gears mesh and steam engines groan. The lives of the people and the machines that drive the city are the same as always. An ordinary night. An ordinary daily life. At this hour, Rosalie should have been scolding Finn for being absorbed in machinery, Julius should have been soothing them, and Ash should have been drinking hot milk with an exasperated look. But there was only silence. Julius, Ash, Finn, Rosalie. The four of them no longer move.
How long had he been there? A red-haired man gazes at the four corpses, wearing a smile so calm it feels entirely out of place.
My, my... what a truly pitiful sight. For your precious friends to end up like this. You're sad, aren't you? You're frustrated, aren't you?
The man pulls a pocket watch from his breast pocket and twirls it playfully with his fingertips.
My name is Nebel. I am an agent of the Spacetime Management Bureau. ...Now then. The lid of the pocket watch snaps shut.
